Another school shooting has happened in the country and this time it's in Townville, SC. Here's a link to the developing story on CNN: http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/28/us/south-carolina-elementary-school-shooting/index.html I grew up 15 minutes from this school and played rec baseball there when I was a kid. I can't believe something like this is happening so close to home. Sadly this is going to play out exactly like other shootings with nothing getting done to curtail gun violence. I'm just shocked that this is even happening here...

Here's a link to the developing story on CNN: if nobody dies does it even count as a school shooting? and how do you shoot a kid and not have him die was the guy using a pellet gun? all in all i rate this shooting 1/5

He wasn't just trying to kill as many people as he could indiscriminately and he was justified because that was the only way he could air out his grievances and pwn the jocks and femalewhores in his class

It's a lot harder to hit children than fully grown adults. I have a lot of respect for gunman that choose kids over adults due to the higher difficulty.

You know I thought the NRA was a bit nuts for saying the solution to gun violence is more guns. But maybe it's just realistic with the diehard second amendment culture. It's not like a gangster or redneck won't find a way to get a gun if they want one. Maybe everyday should just be a shootout between bad guys and not as bad guys. Don't know what this'll do for the tourism industry though.

Serious post guys. I grew up knowing the shooter's father and family. It's a really terrible situation, borne from mental abuse and a father who had an impossible standard for his son. There wasn't any ideological or racial component to the shooting, just a kid lashing out for help. I'm in shock at trying to digest the poo poo that happened, especially the fact that I personally saw the family situation that precipitated the events from childhood on to adulthood. I know this is an internet comedy forum, and you're free to make jokes about the shooting, but this one hit terrifying close to home and I'm still trying to process the loss in the community.

I'm pretty closely related to the shooters family too. I post on the same forums as someone who claims to know them. Such a tragedy for everyone involved.

Was pops the kind of dude to leave guns lying around, or did the kid go through extraordinary measures to get his hand on the weapon?

This event brings to light a serious problem that we have in America: the word 'shooting' or 'shot' is ambiguous and makes me mad every time I see it. 'Black guy shot by police'. Ok... did.. did he die? Yes? oh 'School shooting'. Did anyone die? Stop making me ask this question and give us a more descriptive word like gunmurdered for when people use firearms to actually kill a person.
